Fairy cage

In the Taoist courtyard.

The three waiting Taoist boys were bored. They chatted among themselves and whispered:

How long will the test take? If we don't come out after work, then our trip today will be in vain.

Didn't that guy tell lies just now? Is he really on the right track?

The Taoist boys chatted and were very curious about what was going on behind the lobby. They once again wanted to go over and take a look, but they didn't dare for fear of offending others.

To their surprise, they didn't hesitate for long before footsteps could be heard from deep in the lobby.

The Taoist boys looked up and saw that it was Yu Lie and the old Taoist with dead fish eyes walking out. They were all surprised: How long has it been? It doesn't even take a hundred breaths of time.

Involuntarily, the three Taoist boys had various speculations in their minds:

Could that man be lying and trying to get through? Or maybe he just gave up on the test...

But the next moment, several Taoist boys were keenly aware that the expression of the old Taoist was very different from when they first entered.

Before entering, the old Taoist had a very boring expression on his face, and looked down upon everyone in the hall. But now, the old Taoist has a smile on his face, with a lot of folds, shaped like an old chrysanthemum.

One word emerged in the minds of several Taoist boys: Flattery!

Their eyes moved away from Lao Dao and focused on Yu Lie. Several of them looked dazed.

They all understood that it must be Yu Lie who did something extraordinary in the hall that made the old man change his attitude!

On the other side, the old man with dead fish eyes followed Yu Lie's footsteps and said with a smile:

How about it? The Taoist robes in the Taoist Temple are all purchased by me, a veteran Taoist, and I never cut corners. Is it appropriate for my Taoist friends to wear them?

Yu Lie touched his newly changed robe, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

The Taoist Academy is quite generous to the promoted Taoist boys and has prepared brand new Taoist robes in advance. The robe is also different from the last Taoist robe, which is completely gray. The lower Taoist boy's robe is embroidered with two lines of silver, which shows that the person wearing it has transformed into another person.

Okay, okay. Yu Lie said reservedly to the old Taoist: Thank you, fellow Taoist, for taking care of me.

The old Taoist with dead fish eyes said hurriedly: By the way, fellow Taoist, please come with me, and I will hand over the position sign of the alchemy room to you.

After saying that, the fish-eyed old man came behind the counter where guests were received, bowed down, stuck his butt out, and rummaged through the boxes for a long time.

He took out a wooden box and then took out a dark green bronze medal.

The old Taoist took it with both hands and gave it to Yu Lie.

When Yu Lie saw the sign, a smile appeared on his face. He smiled, arched his head towards the old Taoist, and said, Thank you for your love, fellow Taoist. I will remember today's good deeds.

When the fish-eyed old Taoist heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter, and he said politely: What are you talking about! We are all friends. If you are free, you can always come to the old Taoist for tea.

There is a teahouse over on West Street. I often go there to have tea and have fun. Fellow Taoists can also go and find me.

The entire conversation between the two was witnessed by the three Taoist boys next to them.

The three Taoist boys were stunned for a while, especially when they stared at the dark green bronze medal in Yu Lie's hand, their eyes widened!

It turned out that in the back of the hall, after Yu Lie passed the four levels in one breath, in order to express his apology and please Yu Lie, the old man with dead fish eyes took the initiative to tell Yu Lie his name and took out some positions at the bottom of the box. , free for the remaining columns to choose from.

Yu Lie was pleasantly surprised by this, and without being polite to the other party, he directly chose a position in the alchemy room, exchanged names with the other party, and wrote down the other party's help.

The two chatted for a while, but Yu Lie still needed to go to the library to collect the exercises, so he didn't stay any longer.

He asked the old Taoist if there were any other procedures that needed to be done. After receiving a negative reply, he said goodbye to each other and walked calmly outside the Taoist courtyard.

Until Yu Lie's figure disappeared at the door, the eyes of the three Taoist boys lined up were still in a trance.

Some of them muttered: Didn't I just say that even if you have money, you can't buy a position in the alchemy room... Why don't you even want money now?

The fish-eyed old Taoist still had a smile on his face. Hearing the discussion of the Taoist boys in the hall, he suppressed his smile and put on a businesslike and numb look:

If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. If there's nothing else, I'll get off work.

When the three Taoist boys heard this, they quickly woke up from their muttering. They stood in front of the stage, became cautious again, and looked at the old Taoist on the stage flatteringly.

As the old Taoist dismissed these Taoist boys, he hummed softly:

Cultivation is not just about fighting and killing, but also about being humane. I am weak and weak, but I can still stay in this Taoist courtyard because of my mind.

Two or three sons, it never hurts to have many good relationships.

When the Taoist boys heard this, they nodded quickly and did not dare to refute.

It's just that when they saw the change in the old Taoist's arrogant Gong, their hearts felt like fire was burning and could not calm down for a long time.

Several people wished they could replace Yu Lie and let the old Taoist flatter them and offer benefits!

………………

Yu Lie left the Daolu Courtyard and walked quickly to the library pavilion.

The sky was getting darker and darker. He didn't expect that the trip to Daoluyuan would go well, so he planned to keep up his efforts and go to the library to collect the exercises, so as not to come back tomorrow.

Because when night falls, the library will be closed in time, and those who violate the rules will be shot!

Not long after, Yu Lie came to a stone building.

Although the library is called a pavilion, it is entirely made of stone, and it is not an ordinary black stone. There is an undercurrent of silvery light like mercury on the surface, which may be a formation.

In front of the stone building, there are two crane-shaped stone sculptures with long legs and long necks, and a mouth full of fine teeth.

There are five floors in the Library Pavilion. Although Yu Lie has never been here before, he is quite familiar with this place.

Among them, the first three floors are placed with lower, middle and upper three-level exercises, which are all Daoyin techniques practiced in the Taoist realm; the fourth floor is placed with the cultivation techniques of the Taoist realm; the fifth floor is placed with seven It is said that the spells of the Taoist realm are the private library of the master of Blackwater Temple.

The Master of Blackwater Temple is the mayor of Blackwater Town. He founded the entire town and is currently the only permanent seventh-grade Taoist official in Blackwater Town.

When Yu Lie came to Shilou, a ball of fire burst out of his eyes.

Compared with a lucrative position, the next cultivation method is undoubtedly more exciting to those who practice Taoism, because although the former is important and is a way of settling down, the latter is more important and is the foundation of life!

Yu Lie didn't waste any time. He took out the talisman money he had just fished out from the Taoist courtyard from his arms, cupped his hand at the crane-shaped stone carving in front of the stone building, and presented the talisman money.

The motionless crane-shaped stone sculpture slowly twisted its neck and looked at Yu Lie.

Just as Yu Lie blinked, the red talisman money in his hand disappeared, and he didn't even react.

The stone crane opposite held the talisman money in its mouth. As soon as the beak was cut, it easily bit the talisman money into pieces and swallowed it into its belly.

Yu Lie looked at this scene, stunned, and took a slight breath.

If Shi He had just pecked his head, no matter whether he was not afraid of swords or oil and fire in the Taoist courtyard, his brain would have burst and his brain would have been sucked out.

So Yu Lie bowed slightly again, and the feeling of pride that had just risen in his heart disappeared without a trace.

Although he has completed the transformation from a wolf to a tiger, and his foundation is so solid that it is impressive, he is still just a little Taoist boy, still in the lower ranks, not even in the middle or upper ranks.

Just a stone sculpture in front of the book pavilion can easily kill him.

Yu Lie's expression turned stern. He grabbed the remaining talisman money in his hand and walked quickly to the attic, feeling both horrified and hot at the same time.

In the building, there is a Taoist skill that can make him powerful again!
